themongoose Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 ohhhh this is awesome! My plans for the next 6 months have now been totally reworked. Glad Stokey Pete brought this up as I didn't realize it was next up. I'm in with a JASDF Eagle as well. I have this beauty awaiting some paint... and I pulled the trigger on the only game in town for a camo pattern that I've been waiting 4 or 5 years to do. Hasegawa did a limited release in 1/72 scale. I plan to scan and create a set of masks for the 305SQ Commemorative scheme "Ume-gumi"! This will definitely take all 6 months of this GB to finish. I think I can master this now. I can't believe I'm going to jump into this as I finish up the F/A-18F DigiHell but I gotta do it. I always said it was waiting for an LSP group build to execute on.

That’s an astonishing looking scheme. Surely another showstopper from you. We each have our work cut out (pun intended) to hit these outta the park.

Its 6' or 7' something and the perspex display case is H U G E. Knowing that a 1/32nd Nippon 747 would be like getting into R/C size wise, as the 747 makes the Buff look scrawny. Lots of quarter scale R/C ships that are not 7'+........ themongoose, dutik, Alex and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themongoose Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 wow that aerial shot really puts it into perspective. I knew it was huge, but then put it next to a BUFF and dwarfs it, dang! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themongoose Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Hey guys I just got the model out and tried to get organized for the start date. And guess what, the front window screen is broken into many pieces! Does anybody happen to have a front windscreen clear part for an F-15 as shown in the picture above? I’m gonna post in the ‘looking for’ section of course but thought I would put it here as well since there are a couple of JASDF already on here and I’m sure a few others will be joining.

That certainly sucks bushwater but Tamiya USA may be of help if you strike out elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Williams Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 I believe the F-15E Bunker Buster kit actually comes with two complete clear sprues because of how they implemented the seekers for the new new GBU-15/AGM-130. themongoose 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockie Yarwood Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Dang, I was hoping this would not start this soon! I'm in with an Oscar. Now I'm in two group builds I probably won't finish on time... Dragon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are kinda like a 109... big engine with a little bit of airplane strapped to it. - Dennis S. Mount Juliet, TN USA Yes, you’re correct. I love them despite their performance and poor armament. Now I just need to find some detailed drawings…. Showing rivet lines. Dennis7423 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
